The .night Ho.; stowable , Gentleman , argued, that the • candeft of ,those who suppo.cd the original , vote, arose' from the pie inure they felt in refusing a boon to solai:ge4 proportion of the pimple- of Ireland. But Convinced' that she generous mind of that Right Fla— now-able Gentleman was incapable of supposing that auranan could entertain such a sentiment For himielf he felt tit) such seytittrent, , and when, front the perhapit mistaken view be !had of the subject (for he did tuft think himself infallible) lie was bound to refuse a grant that ...ould be agreeable to a large portion of 'his Majesty's subjects, it was always to him a painful duty. As to the assertion 'that the vow which he was to give was dictated by bigotry 'or intulerauce, he rotidetot admit that it conic' be escribed.so either. It Was lit) part of a religicius tn.

It was the duty of the State t‘i provicte for the edtleaticus of the Ministers of the religion.ot- its own establishment, b ut t h e sam e obligation rtict not apply to other sc&s. All that toleration required with respe& to tln was, thst - no ottficutty s!,ould be 'created to-any measeires they May take for their own educa tion. On every question for an, increase of. grant, it was tit to consider what Was the amount of what was enjoyed before. It was particularly after the establishment of the connection of thiS ()Wintry with the Irish Catholics since the Uttion, that the grant of the Irish Parliament should net be diminkhed. The fact was, that by the Vote then natter under consideration that grant was to be ex.' traded to a provision for one. fourth more than were educated heretototie.' It appeared, besides, that t t others were educated for the Catholic Priesthood in different parts of Ireland. If he had his choice, he should prefer an education for them in open semi. ponies, in dilfeivnt parts.of the Conntry, where their intercourse ss der their friends would , not he preelud. eel, to the institution of one great monti,tie establish. ;tient, in which they would be debarred uf all access to their friends. This Institetion hadbten suppciffid • front its foundation by public grants, Which left the funds originally intended for - it applifable to Othen in stituYions in different parts of the Country.'There was ,maimped intent to RnmanCatholicsit theyclbse to im. ploy then own funds for this purpose.' But if, in coasequence. of 'an increased grant; ti .enniber of liturgry pensioners, as the Right Hon. Gentleman hail designated them, should be thrown upon the Catholic hoeiyovould not the next step be ad* ap. lor a provision for them ? It had been said, but. not made out in argument, that seven years were necessary for the education of thetatho he Clergy ; but, on the contrary, it appeared from the Papers,..that most of the Clergy had left thetol. lege irt four years or less; On the whole, he thought that , the supply of 361• would he sufficient to meet the de.eand of the Catholic Clergy, and therefore should tote for the proposition of his. Right Hon. • • Mr. G. PONtioNBY and the CHANCELLOR of the Exchannita severally. explained. ELLtorr declared, that during the late Ad ministration, the 'supply to the Catholic Priesthood from the education of two hundred Student's% ',gay nooth had been found insufficient far the detnands o f the Country. It had therefore been reeoin tttacs fi;eil is the Government in this country to datable the establishment, and the additional.sam of . 5001. had beets voted by Parliament for that Purpose.— Tl , e Parliament was then dissolved, and the Right. .gelh. Gentleman (Mr. Foster) proposed to retra& Oil grant, but finding that the Trustees of the Co). lege had tatted on the faith of the former vote, he could not retract it. Parliament had therefore sanc tiosed the grant, though the arguments of some Of the Hon. Gentlemen opposite went to the principle of the Institutien. They would not consent to grant more than the original 80001. - and yet they now proposed 'an addition of 22.501; Notwithstand ing the ground stated for this increaie, he believed to be a compromise, and that' the terrors of 'Popery were felt lighter by.some of the Members of the Cabinet than by Othera. As to the statement of the Right Hon. Gentleman, that it-was unpre cedented.to provide v fo'r the education of the Mini sters of a Religion not that of the State, he observed, that the slate of the Irish Catholics was an ex t ra - Ordinary anomaly.' 'They might wish the :ease to be' otherwise, but . they were to take the country as it was, and to give it as much moral and political 'improvement as it was capable of. Gentlemen niight talk of restraint; but that had been the principle of the penal code, and had failed. They might degrade Catholice ; they might make them bad Cutho - Christians, or bad subje&s, but they could not by Stith meant make them Protestants.` Was no eireetual mode of improving the co,,d;tion Ott lreltind, but by instmdittrand ettligliteeiug the Clercs , and the people of the Catholic pgratiaaioo.

The Catholics would gain , by the larger grant, the Protestants would not lose ; andthe public could sustain no injury by it. On the whole, there. lore, be should give his support to the amendment of his Right llon. Prietid. Mr. Caoxen. was called up by the obseritatiol of the flight Hott..Gentleman who bad just sat down, and to protest against itsbeingsupposed here, or in 'lreland, that illose who :ihould'yote fur the - - s'nyaller sum were indi;pngedici.the'Cathol;c body. -For his own part, he had a pertect-convietion of the req)ec. lability in rank, wealth; and numbers of the Catlin. lie ho%iy; and yet, With- that conyitiion, he should Yote,tor. the reduced grant; and .be hoped to satisfy the Committee-that he did so on .faitygrouuds. The questiotr . really was, whether '1250 Ecclesiastical studen k were enough to supply. the. vactinciesin the Catholic. Priesthood; and then The first inquiry must bcs. the:numbers of that Priesthood. The. Right Ho, pourable Gentleman opposite (Mr. Ponsonby) had taunted. his Right Ifrin. Friend -(Mr, PerceVal) with Winging forward this measure Nithoufalso inform. ing-the.House of : the state of the Catholic Church of Ireland,Which, bolding high.effices as he did, he was Mound to do. But was ..it recolleiled• that but one littleryear. had elapsed since that night Honourable Gentleman had belt!-the highest. office in Ireland, and - that it. was during his administration.that this grant was originally enlarged. Did the Right Hon. Gentleman make this increase without himself hay, ing inquired the state . .af the CatholiC Church ; or why, if. he had inquired, did . he not either. then or now, impart his information to the House ;' teat why- should he,. ofrall " persons, conceive h e had a right, to barge his Right Hon. Friend with having,, only in a tnore.,venial degree, followed his example f, -_But the Right Hon. Gentleman, who spoke last!had tried to aepply.thechaim, and he had stated,. on Mr. Creker did not know what authority, that. there' were 2400 Roman Catholic parishes in Ireland. This, he believed, was a great over-state. went he _thought, however, that if there were '2ooo, which was a large computation, that 250 edUcated at the 'public expence, and too at private expencei were fully adequate to supply all probable,' or even possible, vae.ancies., Indeed he was convinced that to increase the number would open a door for fraud, and that persons, under, the, pretence of in tending to become Priests, would receive edu cation at the public expenee„ and Would afterwards gti cff to other professions, to the loss both of the put) l ,:c and the Catholic Priesthood... Hee, observedt frenn the Papers on the table,. that Of those persons who had been hitherto educated at Maynooth, up wards of one-fifth, after having lived there free of ex pence for or a years each, on an average, left the College and the Catholic Ministry for other pursuits; fie therefore was warranted in.

This measure, he thought, would tend Ao. increase the real respedabi l4y of the, .catholie cler g y, by, excluding the poor a 4 19Wer.classes of Students from Sacred Orders, and- as having an, influence of this kind he should vote for the Ninallel bum. • Mr. I'ITZGE4ALD,QUii4I'Ved, that if the Hon.

The principles ut that Right Hou. Gentlemati.were the pi incipies of the . Penal Code. But the experiment had been tried, and. had failed. It the Union had not taken place, there could be no doubt that additions. would have been Made in the • Original grant. At the foundation of the Institution the supply from France only had been cut off; and by the papers it appeared, that 136 were after that educated, on the Continent. The progress of the French arms had cut otf that-supply too, and it, became therefore necessary to Make an addition to the original Instituting, to meet the growing demand.
